My canon PowerShot S 410 has a pinkish blurry lines across the screen and that is what the picture turnes out to be. I use differant memory cards it makes no differance. The battries are the same age as the camera, and neither has been used much. Thanks Robert

This maybe two problems, the pink color hue in the picture and lines from lens shutter problems. Your LCD is still good. You have to replace motherboard and lens.

Canon has recognized that the IXUS400\S400 camera had two manufacturing defects. One is a memory card error and the other is the CCD image sensor which can cause the LCD screen to act dysfunctional. Contact Canon. They will fix these issues for free. Even if the camera is out of factory warranty.
